Princess? Really?

So, yes, I am anti-princess. I have avoided any princess items staying in our house and glad Kate can recognize Thomas the train but not Sleeping Beauty. (commercialism as a whole is harder to avoid than princesses....)

Today, at the doctor, a very disturbing thing happened. My daughter, who loves dogs, who loves kitties, chose the Snow White sticker over all others. Dumbfounded I began my interrogation.

Casually I asked, "so who told you about princesses?" Ready to hear her teacher or daycare friend be named, I instead had to look no further than my own family.

"Nana," she said. "Nana knows about princesses."

Oh great. Has Nana told you about crack, too? I have my work cut out for me.
